CONSTRUCTION FEATURES & MATERIALS:Since 1960, our Vermont family
owned and operated furniture company has handcrafted top quality heirloom
furniture. We only utilize sustainable harvested northern hardwoods, and employ
the best woodworking methods today. Timeless designs and the finest
construction will provide years of enjoyment.
THE WOOD:Cherry is one of the most
unique of all woods found in nature.
With its fine, soft hue and swirling grain, it begins its life a light
pinkish color. As it is exposed to
light, the wood becomes a deeper and richer red- brown. The process is rather dramatic the first two
years and will continue for the life of the piece.

Maple is a dense, strong wood
with fine straight graining sometimes with figured bird’s eye or burl
variations. Its sapwood can vary from
shades of soft white to cream with decorative streaks of tan, grey or black
heartwood.

We offer a wide selection of
durable, stain resistant hand wiped finishes suiting many styles and
needs. Our specially designed formulas
are easy to maintain, only requiring a soft damp cloth for cleaning. No polishes or cleaning products are required
or recommended.

Our furniture is thoughtfully
crafted from solid cherry or maple hardwood.
However, on specific applications it is better to use specially selected
high grade, plain sliced hardwood veneers.
Veneers enable added durability for Case Backs and Drawer Bottoms or
stain resistance on table top writing surfaces.

CONSTRUCTION:All of our hardwood drawers are
assembled with precision FINGER DOVETAIL JOINTS, which are still considered the
best construction method today. The
drawers on all the case pieces operate on a superior 100 lb., under mount
concealed ball bearing drawer glides for added strength and durability.

Concealed metal support bars
are installed on the underside of all double dressers and entertainment units,
providing weight bearing support to prevent sagging.

Due to natural variations in wood, over which we have no control, wood
furniture is sold subject to differences, irregular colors, surface grains, and
texture.
